    For my studies I had to read books about （66）entertainment（entertain），public relations，journalism，ethics in media and countless （67）othertopics．Sometimes the educational reading could get very exhausting．I remember the（68）classes（class） of Prof．Peter Seeger，which inspired me so much．We discussed the news and topics （69）covered（cover） by the media．I could easily join every conversation and talk with （70）highly（high） educated people about international and regional politics，and social injustices，just because of reading．Until today I have kept reading routine I started at that time．

    分析 本文作者主要介绍了自己一直都很喜欢阅读以及阅读对他的影响；当作者还是一个孩子的时候，他就梦想着成为一名作家；为了实现自己的梦想，他曾经在过去的三年里，以在线公共关系为核心，研究了在线新闻；大学期间，为了他的研究需要，他经常到学校里的数字图书馆去搜索一些新闻资讯类的书籍以及有趣的书目；他还阅读了许多关于娱乐、公共关系、新闻、媒体和无数其他话题的书籍；由于大量的阅读使得作者可以很容易地加入各种谈话中去，可以与受过高等教育的人谈论关于国际和地区间的政治，社会的不公正现象等话题．

    解答 61．why         考查连接副词    此处用在系动词is之后，用来引导表语从句；结合上一句"Since I was a child I have wanted to be an author当我还是一个孩子的时候，我就想成为一名作家"可知，本句的意思应是：这就是我为什么在过去的三年里以在线公共关系为核心，研究在线新闻的原因；故填why；
     62．lot      考查固定短语      固定短语a lot 意为：许多，大量的；这里指的是：因此我不得不进行大量的阅读；故填lot
    63．searching    考查动名词    此处与 and之前的going to the library 一起在本句中作并列主语，因此and前后两部分在形式上应保持一致；故填动名词searching
    64．effective    考查形容词    此处用来说明主语的情况，在句中作表语；故用形容词effective，这里的more effective 是比较级形式，意为：更有效
    65．spent     考查时态     根据上文可知，此处介绍的是作者大学时期进行阅读的情况，故用一般过去时spent
    66．entertainment   考查词形转换     此处在句中作介词about的宾语，所以应使用entertain（动词）的名词形式entertainment
    67．other    考查形容词   此处用来修饰名词topics，指除了上述类型的书籍以外的其他的书籍；故填other"其他的"
    68．classes     考查名词的单复数   这里指的是Peter Seeger上过的课，因此可推断出此处指的不只是一节课；故填classes
    69．covered     考查过去分词   此处在句中作后置定语，修饰前面的名词the news and topics，并与其构成动宾关系；故填covered
    70．highly      考查副词      此处用来修饰形容词educated，意为：受过高等教育的；故用副词highly

    点评 本题主要考查了各种语法在短文中的具体运用．做本题时，需要在正确理解短文的前提下，逐句分析句意以及所考查到的语法现象；因此在平时的学习中，应熟练掌握各种语法知识，其中包括词法，句法，各种时态语态以及虚拟语气等．

    1．Big cats have existed on the earth for millions of years，though scientists aren't sure exactly how long．But a new study indicates that a skull（颅骨） of a snow leopard（豹） relative that was recently unearthed is 4.4million years old．That makes it the oldest big cat fossil（化石） ever found．
    A team of US and Chinese scientists unearthed the skull in Tibet．This creature is not a direct ancestor to big cats，but it is closely related to the snow leopard，study leader Jack Tseng told the Associated Press．The fossil lends evidence to the belief that big cats existed in Asia and spread out from there．
    Big cats are at the top of the food chain and have few predators of their own．Big cats include snow leopards，clouded leopards，tigers and lions．Based on genetic judgements，most scientists believe they first existed in Central Asia．But previously，the oldest known big cat fossil was 3.6million years old and found in Africa．
    The new fossil findings were published in the November 13 issue of the science journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B：Biological Sciences．Tseng and his team were fossil hunting in the Himalayas in 2010when they discovered some bones，including the buried cat skull．The researchers were able to determine its age by studying the surrounding rocks and soil．The skull indicates that the animal was about the size of a clouded leopard，which can grow up to 50pounds．In 2012，the team returned to unearth more cat bones．
    David Polly from Indiana University told the Associated Press that the fossil is"convincingly older than the current record holder"．He added that there could be even older big cat fossils in the Tibetan plateau to uncover．

    24．What does the newly unearthed skull proveA？
    A．Big cats might have their origins in Asia．
    B．The oldest fossil is 4.4million years old．
    C．The snow leopard is the oldest big cat．
    D．The skull is of big cats'direct ancestor．
    25．What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 meanB？
    A．relatives．
    B．enemies．
    C．partners．
    D．protectors
    26．How do the researchers know the skull's ageD？
    A．By measuring its size and forehead．
    B．By examining other bones around it．
    C．By studying its chemical composition．
    D．By exploring the rocks and soil around it．
    27．Where was"the current record holder"in the last paragraph foundB？
    A．Asia．
    B．Africa．
    C．America．
    D．Australia．

    18．Nowadays women appear to have a positive image of themselves as safer drivers than men．
    In a survey done for insurer MetLife，51% of women said they drive more safely．The evidence is on their side：Men are 3.4 times more likely than women to get a ticket for careless driving and 3.1 times as likely to be punished for drunk driving．"Women are on average less aggressive and more law abiding （守法的） drivers，which leads to fewer accidents，"the report says．However，not all male drivers share the same opinion．Of the men surveyed by MetLife，39% claimed male drivers were safer．The findings did back them up on one point：automotive knowledge．The report showed that more men are familiar with current safety equipment such as electronic stability control，which helps prevent rollover accidents．
    Auto safety unavoidably matters to Money．Insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amounts of claims，and for now，that mainly includes women．In general，women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men．A study by the website Insweb also showed that auto insurance rates are lower for women in most states．Among individual states，women get the greatest advantage in Wyoming （where they pay 20% less），South Dakota and Washington，D．C．，where their insurance costs are 16% lower．
    "More than 11，900 male drivers died in U．S．traffic accidents in 2009，compared with just under 4，900 women drivers，"according to the study．"Based on miles traveled，men died at a rate of 2.5 deaths per 100 million miles traveled，vs.1.7 deaths for women．"
    64．According to the study，female driversC
    A．are more aggressive while driving         
    B．are more interested in auto knowledge

    B．pay more money to the insurance companies
    C．take the most part of the insurance clients

    B．all women in the USA pay the same for their auto insurance
    C．more female drivers die every year than male drivers
    D．women are generally safer drivers than the opposite gender

    3．Puppy Food
    A puppy（young dog）is a precious addition to any family．The excitement of bringing home a little furry friend will always live in our memories．Like all of us，though，your puppy must have adequate nutrition right from the start to make certain that it'll have a long and healthy life．
    （71）BYou might ask yourself what is the best for your new pet with all of the different varieties on the market in all of their attractive packaging．Some dry food produced specially for puppies is the best for the development of their teeth．（72）E
    Contrary to the belief of many first-time puppy owners，it is not always the best idea to purchase food that is too high in calcium（钙），protein，and vitamin levels． （73）F In addition，a high intake of calcium is associated with bone disease in large-breed dogs．If you have a"smallbreed"puppy，you can buy that kind of food．
    It is not a good idea to feed the food you eat to your puppy frequently，as your puppy may become selective about food．（74）D Some people think that dog biscuits and other treats are fine，but they should not be a main part of puppy's diet．
    Young puppies should be fed three times a day．Each puppy is unique，however，so feeding them twice a day is acceptable．After ten to twelve weeks of age，feed your puppy twice per day．Allow your puppy to eat as much as he would like in fifteen minutes． （75）A If you let your puppy eat too much or too often by keeping food accessible at all times，he may become overweight and have health problems as an adult．Like humans，your puppy will not enjoy the food any longer if it is there at all times

    A．Pick up the dish with the remaining food．
    B．Proper food is a basic necessity for your puppies．
    C．Remember to give your puppy the food he would like to have．
    D．It can also cause an upset stomach due to an unbalanced diet．
    E．A further benefit is that it is less expensive than the canned food．
    F．One example is that extra helpings of nutrients do harm to digestive organs．
    G．It'good to provide the extra nutrients a puppy needs until he grows larger．

    11．For most seventh graders，life doesn't get much harder than a history test．But for Grant Reed of Bellville，Ohio，it's his own current events that are so painful．"Honestly，I don't want to die，"Grant says．Last year，doctors at Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus found a tumor（肿瘤）in Grant's brain．They cut it out，but the surgery left him with stroke-like symptoms．Plus，he had to go through months of radiation and chemotherapy to try to stop the spread of the disease．
        Yet，through it all，Grant has shown remarkable determination，which he owes，partly，to Ohio State football．His parents，Troy and Denise，were both in the OSU marching band and fell in love during halftime of the Michigan game．His cat is named   after the team Buckeye．His wardrobe is painted scarlet（the color of the team's sportswear）．The point is，almost nothing mattered more to Grant than Ohio State  football-until he got sick，of course．

        It's now been more than a year since Grant issued that announcement．"And if you

        This weekend，Ohio State and Michigan will be battling like their lives depend on it．But in this house，the Reed family will be watching with a calm insight：it's just a game．

    B．Grant suffered a serious dlsease．
    C．The operation was successtul．
    D．The tumor has spread all over．

    D．God helps those who help themselves
    43．Why did Grant name his cancer Michigan？D
    A．Because he dare not face it．
    B．Because he doesn't want to die．
    C．Because Michigan is his favorite team．

    44．Apart from radiation and chemotherapy，Bis helping Grant beat the disease．
    A．the semantics      B．his strong determination
    C．the football game   D．his cat Buckeye
